Is floral morphology a good predictor of floral visitors to Antirrhineae (snapdragons and relatives)?

Plant Biology, 2017
Abstract The association between plants and flower visitors has been historically proposed as a main factor driving the evolutionary change of both flower and pollinator phenotypes. The considerable diversity in floral morphology within the tribe Antirrhineae has been traditionally related to pollinator types.

Structure and ultrastructure of floral nectaries of two Opuntia species (Cactaceae) in relation to their floral visitors

Plant Systematics and Evolution, 2018
Opuntia is the most diverse and widespread genus in the cactus family. In spite of the strong relationship with biotic pollination, little is known about their floral nectaries. We present the first deep structural and ultrastructural description of the floral nectaries of two Opuntia species (Opuntia anacantha var. retrorsa; Opuntia elata var. elata),

Variation Among Floral Visitors in Pollination Ability: A Precondition for Mutualism Specialization

Science, 1984
The unusual floral biology of a neotropical herb provided an opportunity to determine that floral visitors varied significantly in their ability to effect fruit-set. Pollination efficiency and visitation frequency varied among Hymenoptera (five taxa), which were responsible for 99 percent of all fruits set.

Beetles as floral visitors in the Magnoliaceae: an evolutionary perspective

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2021
Due to its ancient origin in the Permian and the high proportion of beetle-pollinated taxa within ancestral magnoliid lineages, it has been hypothesized that beetles were among the first floral visitors of the proto-angiosperms on Earth. Thus, beetle-pollinated flowers have become important model systems essential for the study of the origin and ...

Plant–floral visitor network structure in a smallholder Cucurbitaceae agricultural system in the tropics: implications for the extinction of main floral visitors

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2017
Animal pollination is responsible for the majority of the human food supply. Understanding pollination dynamics in agricultural systems is thus essential to help maintain this ecosystem service in the face of human disturbances. Surprisingly, our understanding of plant–pollinator interactions in widely distributed smallholder agricultural systems is ...

Floral traits differentiate pollination syndromes and species but fail to predict the identity of floral visitors to Castilleja

American Journal of Botany, 2021
AbstractPremiseAnimal pollination is critical to plant reproduction and may cause convergent evolution of pollination syndromes. Pollination syndromes in Castilleja have been distinguished based on floral traits and historical observations of floral visitors. Here we addressed these questions: (1) Can pollination syndromes be distinguished using floral
